Vacuuming substrate doesn’t have to mean tearing up your aquascape 😎 This process removes buildup, improves water quality, and keeps your aquarium looking its best! In carpeted tanks, you have more leeway. Simply run your hose over a rooted carpet to maintain it ✨ However, tanks with sand or gravel can be trickier. We recommend using a small pipette or turkey baster to gently disturb your substrate while siphoning. #aquariumsubstrate #aquascaping #aquariumkeeping #aquariummaintenance
